Russia UFO Crash & Recovery

Russia UFO Crash & Recovery

Date: 1969

Location: Berezovsky, Sverdlovsk Oblast, Russia

The details of a Russian crash on or about 1968 are sketchy and somewhat suspect.

This case comes from the so called secret KGB files, which were reportedly smuggled out of the former Soviet Union.

Reportedly, $10,000 was paid for the information.

The details of these secret files were first offered to the general public on September 13, 1998 as part of a TNT special titled The Secret UFO Files of the KGB.

The show featured extraordinary film and still photographs of the UFO recovery, and also a portion of autopsy film on part of an alien body.

The event, according to the files, occurred in the state of Sverdlovsky, which was formerly Yekatrinburg of the USSR.

The crash story follows a familiar pattern normally associated with this type of report.

The fiery crash of an unknown object occurred in 1969.

The site was secured by the Russian military, and one dead alien was found in the wreckage.

The remains of the craft and alien were brought to a secure location, and the alien body was autopsied.

Both still and moving pictures were taken of the craft, its retrieval, and the alien autopsy.

The autopsy shows only an alien torso and arm.

From the size of the body parts, the alien would have been an extremely small being.

Probably the most notable footage is from MIG gun cameras of confrontations with UFOs.

There have been only a few still frames of this footage in America.

Supposedly, the crash story was validated by secret KGB documents.

The footage at the crash site does seem to be authentic at least on several points.

The truck in the film is a circa 1950 model ZIS151, which has not been used by the military for quite some time, and the truck would have been difficult to find to stage a hoax with.

Other elements of the film do not exhibit any obvious signs of a hoax, as to the movement of the soldiers, the timing of the film as to shadows, and the UFO itself.

There are also several documents shown to verify the event itself, and an eyewitness to the event who swears that the recovery mission did occur.

The footage of the autopsy film shows personnel without caps and gowns, which seemed odd to me at first, but after some research I found that this was commonplace for that era in Russia.

Although the American/Russian relationship is much improved over a few years ago, it still lacks.

Any information received is subject to translation, and often times there are problems with interpretation.

It is sad there is not more cooperation between the countries.

The case of the 1969 retrieval and autopsy are difficult to assess.

Until more information is uncovered, it will remain unsubstantiated.
